Strengths: relatively inexpensive, strong, good resistance to rust and elements, compact, durable (Im writing this review now after using it for 4 years!Weaknesses: To remove hex tool in handle of chain breaker, it takes a small phillips screwdriver.... guess you have to carry a small phillips if you even need that size hex head!Bottom Line: A great tool that has most everything i need on the trail. Could use a larger flat and smaller phillips, but those arent necessity. I have had this wet on many occasions and it still has no rust (though I do clean and lube it).
I actually bought this tool because I was carrying another brand multi-tool and when i needed it, it didnt have a 8mm hex for my friends crank arm bolt (which fell out and then the crank arm fell off)... went right out and bought this after some great peer reviews!

Strengths: Sturdy construction and a good selection of common tools.Weaknesses: A knife would be nice, sometimes you just need to cut something. The 8mm is a bit short, but still functionalBottom Line: Looks, this thing is built like a tank, there's no little plastic bits to wear out and none of the joints have the cheap play ridden feeling of lesser tools. Also the chain tool is a properly strong piece of kit.

Strengths: Light, versatile, cheap, strongWeaknesses: 8mm & 10mm keys a bit shortBottom Line: This tool has everything you need on the trail, literally. About the only thing it doesn't have is a spare tire. Tools are very strong as is the chain breaker and outer casing. Provides plenty of leverage when needed.

Strengths: Has every thing I need, not too much stuff I don't
good tollerances and finishes on tools, strong,compact, and almost sexyWeaknesses: The 8 and 10 mm allens could be a little longer, spoke wenches are a little hidden and hard to use, but thats the price of the compact siceBottom Line: I use this tool more like a tool box than a trail tool, and it will do just about anything short of pressing in a headset. The chain tool has already outlasted two others that I've snapped, so if I'd only started with this do it all tool instead of buying separated tools it would have paid for itself.
